To alZZ whom it may concern.:

Be it known that I, REN AUGUSTIN Poi- TRIMOL, a citizen of the- Republic of France, residing at l0 Rue Barbette,Paris, in the Republic of France, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Apparatus for Vaporizing Mineral Oils and for Consuming the Vapor thus Produced, of which the following is a specilication, reference being had to the accompanying drawings. i

This invention relates to improvements in apparatus for vaporizing mineral oils and for consuming the vapor thus produced; and it consists in an improved construction of burner such as will be hereinafter fully described.

The object of the said invention is to generally improve burnersofthis class by producing a device simple in construction, light in Weight, and of small dimensions, insuring perfect combustion and giving a brilliant, smokeless, and steady dame.

A further object of the invention consists in providing the vaporizing retort, superheating pipes or tubes located in said retort and extending through the burner-tube, said superheating-pipes being so located as to be acted upon by the llame, and a j et-nozzle situated in the open end of the burner-tube.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a central longitudinal section through aburner embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a similar View showing a modified construction.

In the drawings, referring more particularly to Fig. `l, II designates the feed-tube bent above the burner F, so as to form a Vaporizing-retort at this part to be acted upon by the flames of the burner. The lower ends of this tube II are mounted in a iiltering-box S, provided with suitable iltering materials, such as asbestos felt, or any spongy, permeable, capillary material. v

At the most intensely heated parts of the feedtube l-I, I provide for one or more supplies of vapor by means of the pipes L, which pass specially and apart into the flame and extend downwardly into the mixing-tube I,

and extend therethrough to the open ex-I tremityM of the said tube I. The other end of this mixing-tube I forms the burner F, which is composed of a kind of funnel, more or less closed by a disk K, which is adjustable toward or from the said burner F, by

means of set-screws C for the purpose of regulating the outflow of the gas. A jet-nozzle N is located in the pipes L, through which the vapors are discharged under pressure into the mixing-tube I. To the bottom of the filterbox S is connected by any suitable means a supply P, which is in communication with the source of supply.

The operation of my burner may be described as follows: The liquid being conveyed under pressure by anysuitable means through the supply-pipe P passes through the filtering-box S into the feed-tube H. Before turning on the supply of oil I heat by any suitable means the burner F and the upper part of the feed-tu be I-I, which forms the vaporizing-retort, until these parts are at the desired temperature for enabling them to vaporize the hydrocarbon employed. .Then I admit the liquid, which, passing through the iiltering material, iiows into the feed-tube H and is vaporized immediately upon arriving at its upper part. The vapors then enter the pipes L from said feed-tube, are superheated therein, become gasifled, and pass toward the extremities of these pipes and leave under pressure through the jet-nozzle N, carrying the air with them and, becoming mixed, form a hot carbureted air, which feeds the burner and is consumed perfectly in the form of a blue brilliant iiame. From this moment it is by the sole action of the iiame from the burner that the vapor from the hydrocarbon is maintained. By this arrangement, the heat being sufficiently great up to the extremity of the pipes L, placed in the interior of the hot,

burner-pipe, condensation is avoided, and it is under great pressure that the gasiiied vapors leaving the pipes L atNcan become automatically mixed in the necessary quantities with the air.

In Fig. 2 a modified construction of burner is illustrated, but is constructed and operates on the same principle. The tube H is divided into branches h 7i. These two branches extend to the upper end of the burner and form a fork and allow onlya single tube to extend above this burner. A pipe L extends from the upper end of the tube I-I downwardly to the enlarged end M of the mixing-tube. A jet-nozzle N is secured to the end of the At the upperextremity of the said pipe L.

of the burner-tube and a superheating pipe or tube extending between the vaporizing-re tort and the jet-nozzle,'said superheating pipe or tube being so situated as to be acted upon by the flame and extending Within the burnertube to the j et-nozzle, substantially as specied.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 8th day of May, 1896.

REN AUGUSTIN PoITRiMoL.
